Carolina vs Notre Dame game thread 🧵Wednesday 22 Feb 2023

[IDUNK4HEELS]

I really hate late games but it is what it is. The Irish almost beat Virginia last time out so regardless who the opponent is they are tough at home.

The Irish start three guards and it seems like Nate Laszewski ( a Carolina killer) has been there forever at a forward spot shooting three after three from the outside.

If there ever was a time for Bacot to have a monster 👿 game this should be it because I believe Ven Allen Lublin at just 6’8 will be assigned to stop him because Laszewski is to important to the offense to get in foul trouble.

Goodwin a lefty sharpshooter is the one player off the bench who can hit from downtown.

Nance, Black and Johnson HAVE to contribute something offensively to take the pressure off Davis, Love. Bacot to score all of the points.

This is a must game and everybody must be on the same page to start this 4 game gauntlet…

Was heading out to the game, but feeling under the weather a bit, and crappy weather on a week night late game I'm going to have to pass, and let a different buddy join the crew still going with my ticket.

I think UNC has to jump on the Irish early. If it is close late, ND will be playing carefree on house money at home, while UNC will have a boatload of pressure to avoid a bad tier 3 loss at this stage with their current tournament resume.

Get a cushion and play from solid lead down the stretch !!

Boston College is presently taking to Virginia 51-39 with 5 minutes to play.

Go Heels!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Nance with a ft 4-0

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Puff in for Nance

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Getting good shots but they are just not falling yet again

 

[sctarheel30]

A scorching start

 

[UNC-75]

You’re surprised?

 

[sctarheel30]

Slow start but not taking advantage of it

 

[sctarheel30]

Nance on fire….

 

[TarHeelFanJ]

U-G-L-Y

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Nance a short hook after a Irish three and a ft 7-3

 

[sctarheel30]

Someone gotta help nance out

 

[sctarheel30]

U-G-L-Y

That’s being nice

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Dunn now in missing a long three but a tremendous block as Davis drives and scores 9-3

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Ryan a easy layup 9-5

 

[sctarheel30]

Dear lord a microcosm of our season right there

 

[gauchoheel]

I think I might've turned on a Netflix comedy special rather than the game. This shooting is something else...

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Five chances to score then Nance is fouled and he drains both free throws 11-5

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Wertz zips by Davis for a hoop 11-7

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Bacot has missed several bunnies then Ryan a long three 11-10

 

[sctarheel30]

They’re hanging around not good

 

[TarHeelFanJ]

is 3/19 bad?

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Both teams as cold inside as the temperature is outside. Bacot scores over zona 13-10

 

[sctarheel30]

First one to 40 wins….may take a while

 

[gauchoheel]

First team to 40 wins?

 

[NorCalTarheel]

This reminds me of my sons sixth grade basketball. No one can put the ball in the hoop. It's going to be 17-12 final

 

[gauchoheel]

Both teams a combined 8-39. A scintillating 20.5% from the field!

Definitely need Caleb Love back in there. He shoots 39%.

 

[UNC-75]

Hard to believe we shoot this poorly.

Has to be outstanding defense.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Davis at the line drops a couple and Trimble comes in 15-10

 

[sctarheel30]

Hard to believe we shoot this poorly.

Nah not really just embarrassing

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Puff o for 3 so far

 

[strummingram]

How was that a foul on Puff???

 

[sctarheel30]

Wow a charge on puff?

 

[gauchoheel]

Can't believe how badly Notre Dame is shooting. We've been getting beaten a lot on drives and they've missed at least 3 layups. Some good defensive plays but ND is also leaving tons of points on the table.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Is love hurt because he has been out for a long time

 

[gauchoheel]

How was that a foul on Puff???

Makeup call because we've gotten most of the fouls our way so far. I've noticed most college refs do that where the home team can never be down too many fouls.

 

[UNC-75]

Watched the Tar Heel women’s team the other day. Everyone who played shot better than our guys. Hard to believe.
